SPRING!

We have had great weather this last week - temps 18C to 20C during the day and as you can see, spring has sprung!
Over the last 18 months, I haven't been as diligent as I would have wanted in the garden. So with this great weather, I've been weeding and feeding! I try to do as much as I can in the morning and in the afternoon, knitting in front of the TV catching up on my DVDs.

One of the hazards of weeding is that I always get startled by a fat juicy earthworm popping out of the ground.
GAAAAH!
I know they're great for the garden but I HATE earthworms!

Ahhhhh .... the joys of having a fat companion dog.
Doggie Notes for when your owner is gardening:
1) Fight for space to park your butt in tight garden spots when she's weeding. No, don't sit somewhere else like opposite her. Make sure you sit beside her or on her toes.
2) Any tight spot is also a great place to stretch and sun yourself right on top of where the weeding is being done.
3) Be sure to get real friendly when you're in a tight spot like sniff and snort really close to your mummy's face.
4) and when she's bending down picking up weeds, leaves etc , remember to go around and make her stuck in an unladylike position.
5) and don't forget to FART like there's no tomorrow.
